Hilarious Play
Set Jan. 17, IB
Intensive rehearsal is being held
by the all-star cast of "Our Hearts
Were Young and Gay" in readiness
for presentation of the play Friday
and Saturday nights, January 17
and 18 in Wood-Mar hall auditor-
ium. Miss Charlotte Macy is di-
recting the production.
Bethel Herndon and Mildred
Thiesen take the lead roles as Cor-
nelia Otis Skinner and Emily Kim-
brough, who are the main char-
acters in this hilarious comedy.
Dick Winters is played by Ben
Franklin and Lew McEvoy is en-
acted by Dick Cadd. Others in the
cast are: Winifred Flaugh, Anne
Moore; Harriet St. John, Jeanne
Woodward; the inspector, Esther
Mae Moor; Therese, Mary Jack-
son; Madame Elsie, Anne Moore;
Monsieure della Croix, Don John-
son; the steward, Melvin Veale;
the purser; Leroy Nifert, the
stewardess, Mary Jackson; the ad-
miral, Johnny Sommons, and the
window cleaner, Vern Brightup.
The story of the play is a fam-
iliar one, having been adapted
from the best seller by the same
name. It has been made into a
movie, and has been widely used
throughout the United States by
amateur groups.
Authentic 1920 costumes will be
obtained to heighten the atmos-
phere of gaiety. Those taking care
of the costuming, publicity and
other business matters pertaining
to the play have not been announc-
td yet by the directors.
This is the annual student body
play. Last year an all-student
body cast gave "Wind in the
South," a timely story of a re-
turned veteran and his problems in
adjusting to new conditions.

Crescent Sports Editor
Brrr . . . We are still thinking
of that opening tilt in the Hester
Memorial gym two weeks ago to-
day. Minus any kind of a heating
facility and with about half of the
windows still out, the Pacific col-
lege five played host to a game
Lewis and Clark outfit. Both teams
came from the dressing rooms,
which were just as the court, with
warmups, trousers and gloves on
trying to brave the draft which
seemed to be near sub zero calibre.
We'll not forget for quite a
while the problem we had trying
to keep our writing hand warm
enough to keep score, but thanks
to Boy Clark, referee for the fra-
cus, we easily solved that prob-
lem with a pair of heavy wool
knit gloves. And then there was
the final team, which Coach Hln-
shaw put In, dressed in various
types of garb Including warmups.
Yep, it was quite a game — unus-
ual, and one for the books in as
much as it was the first game ever
played in the new Hester Memor-
ial gym. Both teams showed good
sportsmanship, and everyone leav-
ing the game afterwards — carry-
ing with them their many blankets
— must have felt as we do, that
this game was only a preview of
what is to come with the addition
of the new sport plant on the cam-
pus.
Hint Department
We don't profess to be any kind
of an adviser to the coach or any
one as far as that goes, but we
believe we have a pretty good sug-
gestion when we forward this idea
to those concerned: How about
putting the three Alaskans in a
game at the same time sometime
and see how they work together.
The three Indians — Arnold
Booth, Ray Baines and Clyde
Faber, are said to be from the
same town in Alaska and are all
three used to the same style of
ball. By the way, they seem to be
plenty speedy and fairly accurate
on their shots. 'Tis only a sugges-
tion, but it may prove worthwhile
sometime, at least for a try.
What They Mean
Several people have asked what
the FG, FT, PF and TP meant in
the tabulation of the scoring for
basketball games. Well, we had
the same trouble a few years back
and had we not started to write
sports, probably would still be hav-
ing that trouble. So an explanation
of the abbreviations is in order:
GF means field goals; FT means
free throws made; PF means per-
sonal fouls, that is, fouls inflicted
by the individual player mention-
ed; and TP simply means total
points. Hope that solves some
people's questions.
No Results of Clark Junior
We are very sorry that there are
no results of the Clark Jr. college-
Pacific college game which was
played on the Hester court Satur-
day, December 21. Christmas va-
cation had just started and we
were not able to get back into
town. We will try to write it up
PRAYER FOR THE
NEW YEAR
Our Father, through the com-
ing year
We know not what shall be;
But we would leave without a
fear
It's ordering all to Thee.
It may be we shall toil in vain
For what the world holds fair;
And all the good we thought to
gain,
Deceive and prove but care.
It may be it shall darkly blend
Our love with anxious fears,
And snatch away the valued
friends
The tried of many years.
But calmly, Lord, on Thee we
rest;
No fear our trust shall move;
Thou knowest what for each is
best,
And Thou art perfect love.
— Anon.
and compile scoring today, and it
will probably be posted for public
reading on the bulletin board
across from room 17.
Swanson- Antrim Betrothal
Announced New Year's Eve
Dan Cupid scores again with the
announcement New Year's eve that
the wedding bells are to ring for
another P.C. couple, Eleanor Swan-
son and Wayne Antrim. The wed-
ding date has been set as June,
1948.
Miss Swanson, a member of the
junior class whose home address
is Portland, Oregon, lists music as
her major subject (Tho' not her
major interest!) She is editor of
the 1947 yearbook, the L'Ami, and
is one of the most active students
on the campus, having been pre-
sented in both vocal and violin re-
citals.
Although Wayne attended Pa-
cific in 1941 his studies were inter-
rupted by a three-year hitch in the
United States Coast Guard. The
fair-haired sociology and econom-
ics major hails from Nampa, Ida-
ho and is in the sophomore class.
Wayne played an active football
season and is at present on the
basketball team although he also
holds several offices, among them
the post of choir business man-
ager.
The couple intends to make
Nampa their permanent home,
where Wayne has his eye on a
business career.

Quakers Drop
Gym Opener To
Pioneers, 58-13
Pacific's basketball Quakers, yet
to hit the win column this year in
the cage sport, didn't make such
a good showing as they inaugurat-
ed the use of their new Hester
Memorial gym on the campus two
weeks ago, December 17. The Lewis
and Clark Pioneers completely
dominated the scoring books in
blossoming forth with a fast
downcourt passing game and spill-
ed the locals by an impressive 58-13
count.
It was a cold, damp night in the
Hester court, as the gym's heat-
ing plant had not yet been install-
ed; but the fair-sized college
crowd, which witnessed the tussle,
saw some of the hottest and fast-
est ball playing yet seen this year.
Although the game will not go
down in the history of Pacific as
a win for the Quakers, it will be
remembered in the books as the
first game ever to be played on the
Memorial court. The huge layout,
which is the maximum standard
size of basketball courts, was al-
most enough to wear down the
stamina of both teams after rac-
ing back and forth for several
rounds.
The Pioneers' Harold Kelsey,
highpointer for the evening, drew
first blood by taking the tipoff
and dribbling down the side for
any easy layin. From that time on,
the game was all for the Portland-
ers as they rolled up a 25-7 first
half lead.
Outstanding play for the locals
was that of Forward Conrad Cline
who swished 3 of the 4 field goals
made and one free throw to pace
the losers with 7 points. H. Kelsey
for Lewis and Clark was high
pointer with IP.. Forgson followed
behind with 8 for the Portlanders.
Both coaches, Kelsey Hinshaw
of PC, and Eldon Fix of the L and
C'ers used nearly three teams dur-
ing the tilt. The Pioneers have
won a previous cage tussle to the
tune of 75-34 in the season's open-
er for the Quakers.

Secrecy Of Unopened Boxes
Christmas is over. The tree has
been put away. Santa <3laus has
made his regular visit and all the
surprizes have sprung — including
that jack-in-the-box you got for
Grandpa. But old Santa, in the
form of P.C. boys and gals has left
gifts to be used and appreciated all
year. Yes, finally all the "steadies"
around school have revealed the
reasons for those furtive trips
down town, and the secret pack-
ages hidden under the bed have
been dragged out, unlinted, and
given away. Now conversations
can resume the usual speculation
on Kilroy instead of running like
this one we overheard between
Chris and Divonna.
Divonna: "Well, what did you
get me?"
Chris: "Oh, I dunno."
Divonna: "Oh, you do, too. It is
round?"
Chris: "Nope."
Divonna: "Is it square?"
Chris: "Nope."
Divonna: "Is it rectangular?"
Chris: "Nope."
And so on, ad infinitum. The last
we heard, she was up in theHriaxo-
gon stage with Chris still giving
out with a genuine Willy Lump-
lump "nope".
It seems the big surprise was a
variety of shapes. A beautiful
dresser set was what Divonna
found in her package from Chris.
He received a rust colored sweat-
er courtesy curious Divonna.
Mickey Cole intercepted the let-
ter that her brother Art, wrote to
Santa, and found he 'specially
wanted some loud striped socks.
Sister Mickey obliged, so next time
you see Art, take notice of those
socks — as if you could do other-
wise.
A beautiful Bible with "Wayne
E. Antrim" engraved in gold on
the cover was Eleanor Swanson's
gift to her blonde. She received
from him a lovely strand of pearls.
Pearls were popular among P.C.
gifts. Also getting a lovely string
— this time a single strand of La-
guna pearls — was Mickey Thies-
sen from — you guess. Mickey gave
Homer a moss green sweater and
some heavenly smelling after-
shave lotion. Consequently, Homer
goes around toasty warm and
smelling — ummmm, nice, thanks to
his thoughtful girl friend.
"Merry Christmas" was express-
ed to Daryl Hockett by Ruth
Engle with a neat 616 Browning
camera.
Jack Cadd ordered a lovely cor-
sage for his mother for Christmas.
NEEDED: STARGAZERS
Mankind needs a new dream.
The old dreams are threadbare with use and abuse. They
have been kicked around so much that they no longer mean
anything. The frontier has vanished. The concepts of liberty,
justice and democracy have lost their meanings or have be-
come the topics for endless debate. Men have learned to fly
like birds, swim like fishes and burrow in the ground like
moles.
And fight like mad dogs.
Mankind needs a new dream — a dream that is new in
its hopes of realization, yet as old as the race of men itself,
that was dreamed when the first man reached his hand toward
the stars.
Man has the technical ability and the scientific knowl-
edge today to reach the stars. The army is conducting experi-
ments with guided rockets and predicts that it will reach the
moon within 18 months.
If the nations of the earth would pour their resources
into the conquest of the universe, they might have no time
or energy left to worry about conquering their earth-bound
neighbors.
The rewards would be great. The have-not nations
might find their natural resources infinitely increased by
the exploitation of new planets and new satelites. Life itself
would take on a new vigor, a new meaning. There would be
new frontiers.
Why should we scramble for a few miles of disputed
earth when there is a universe to conquer ? Call the star-struck
dreamers fools, idealists, and madmen. Call yourselves real-
ists and practical men of the world, but your world is small
and battle- weary ; your horizons close you in like prison walls.
There may be peace again when man can dream a new
dream and reach up to touch a star.

Pacific Plays Host to Lewis and Clark Quint
BY HARLOW ANKENY
Crescent Sports Editor
This reporter was quite impress-
ed by a suggestion made at the
last MAA meeting which stated
that the school should have a mid-
year letter award assembly, pre-
ferrably before Christmas vaca-
tion, during which awards would
be given to the letter winners in
football and baseball.
At present only one letter award
assembly is held during the year
and according to this writer's in-
formation that one is held some-
time during the latter part of the
school year. If this is so, then cer-
tainly another award assembly
during the year would prove very
advantageous. The biggest advan-
tage of having two instead of the
usual one letter award assembly
of the year hinges on the fact that
the letter winners would be able
to wear their letter sweaters in
school the rest of the academic
year. As it is, the letter earners
sometimes do not get to wear their
pride and joy for more than a
couple of weeks. In considering
this fact also, we must remember
that many times students drop out
after one year and do not get to
wear the sweaters only the short
time they are on the campus after
the late spring vacation.
'Twould really be a good idea in
the opinion of this department. It
also doesn't look as if it would
be too difficult for the program
to be staged. Why not give the let-
ter winners their due respect?
History Being Made
Many sport events have taken
place during the past month and
a number of these will go down in
history, such as the near upset
of the great Army gridiron crew
by a fighting Navy team not too
long ago. Maybe the news made
at the Pacific college institution
will not go down in the historical
files of national sports, but it cer-
tainly will go down in our books
as one of the biggest sport events
of the local school. This news, as
most of you have probably already
guessed, is the near completion of
the huge Hester Memorial gym. It
won't be too long a time now when
the court of the new building will
be in easy access for an improved
physical education program at the
school.
Speaking of the gym, it would
be well to mention here the future
possibilities of it. With markings
for two volley ball courts, two bas-
ketball crosscourts, a badminton
court ( a doubles layout), and of
course the full-sized basketball
zone, the building will prove to be
a very busy sport plant as soon as
it is completed.
But there is still one more area
on the campus that should defin-
itely be taken care of as soon as
possible. That area of course is
the "scar of the campus," the un-
finished tennis court next to the
administration building. This par-
ticular "scar" has oft been men-
tioned when sports are talked of
around the campus, and the truth
of the situation is that the local
sport critics aren't the only ones
asking about it! Other schools vis-
iting the campus must also won-
der what "on earth" the "scar"
is supposed to be.
Outlook Department:
Prospects seem to be a good
topic to talk about at this time of
the year when there is a lull be-
tween the two major sports of
fall and winter. The possibilities of
the coming basketball season seem
to point to one thing: With addi-
tional practice a pretty fair hoop
squad can be whipped into shape,
here at PC. The present starting
five, that is, the one that started
the Lewis and Clark game several
weeks ago consists pf four letter-
men, namely Dale Parrish, Arnold
Booth, Norval Hadley and Earl
Craven. In addition to these four
several other basketballers have
shown promises of what they are
made of. Will not mention names
here as an unbiased writer, but
we will make the statement that
if the team is whipped into shape
soon a very successful hoop sea-
son for Pacific college is in store.
Scores Prove Interesting
Several colleges in this area
will be rivals in the near future
for Pacific college's cage quint,
when the basketball season gets
into full swing. So we decided to
publish from time to time scores
of other games between these col-
leges. Here are several of these
scores which were results of
games during the past month : Lin-
field 57, OCE 38; Linfield 70, OCE
29; OCE 52, Lewis and Clark 49;
Willamette 66, Vanport extension
of OSC 33. Most of these teams
mentioned above will be met some-
time this year by Pacific. By
looking at these scores and com-
paring them with the PC-Lewis
and Clark game — well, it may turn
out to be a tough season for the
locals.

Schedule Still
Not Complete
Several games have been add-
ed to the yet uncompleted sched-
ule of basketball games for Pa-
cific college since the last issue
of the Crescent. The overall pic-
ture remains about the same, how-
ever, with a definitely heavy and
tough schedule of tilts ahead for
the local five.
Some of the meetings will in-
clude two games, one first team
and one junior varsity. So far, no
word of definite agreements have
taken place with Vanport exten-
sion of OSC, Reed college of Port-
land, Multnomah college and
Northwest Christian college of Eu-
gene.
The following games have been
scheduled:
December 17 — Lewis and Clark,
here.
December 21 — Clark Junior col-
lege of Vancouver, here, (tentative) .
January 10 — Linfield Junior
Varsity, here.
January 21 — Oregon College of
Education, here.
February 14 — Pacific Univer-
sity, (both teams), here.
February 21 — Oregon College of
Education, there.
Remember, Men!
Girls Take Over Gym
Pacific college's girl sport en-
thusiasts are to take over the use
of the gym on Tuesdays and
Thursdays of each week starting
at 4:00 o'clock in the afternoon.
In addition to playing basketball,
the gals are expected to go
through rigorous physical educa-
tion exercises. Miss Charlotte
Macy is the director of girls' phy-
sical education.
Men's Group
Holds Meeting
That all wives of first string
basketball players get complimen-
tary tickets to athletic events;
that the illegal wearing of letters
and stripes should be abolished
and that the school should have a
mid-year letter award assembly
were all suggestions made and ap-
proved by members of the Men's
Athletic association at the organ-
ization's regular meeting on De-
cember 6.
Also brought up at the meeting,
presided over by Arnold Booth,
was a suggestion that the MAA
should sponsor a dedication cere-
money for the new gym and in so
doing should invite various high
school students who may show an
interest in the school. Tying right
in with this suggestion was one
to attempt in getting the high
school district tourney held in the
Hester Memorial gym.
Three men were appointed to
handle all ticket sales of the cur-
rent basketball season and they
are Johnny Sommen, Gilbert
Strand, and Wayne Antrim, who is
also treasurer of the MAA. Ap-
pointed to a committee to con-
struct proper sidewalk facilities
and parking space were Roger
Minthorne, Gordon St. George and
Norv Hadley.
In reference to the mid-year let-
ter award assembly the athletic
group decided to turn the matter
over to the student-faculty com-
mittee on cooperation.
Locals Inaugurate New Gym
Tomorrow Nite at 8 O'clock
Inaugurating the use of their new Hester Memorial gym, Pa-
cific college basketballers will play host to the Lewis and Clark Pio-
neers from Portland tomorrow night in an 8:00 o'clock game. The
tilt, which is the third of the season for the locals is a return match
with the cage crew from the Rose

Lewis and Clark
Cagers Tip P. C.
75-34onDec.6
Lewis and Clark's athletic teams
seem to have a mania for high
scores against the Pacific college
Quakers, for on December 6 the
basketball gents of the Portland
college rolled up a 75 point tally
in holding the locals to a 75-34
ball game. Earlier in the year the
L and C footballers rolled up a
51-0 count against a fighting
Quaker eleven. The game was the
first for the season for PC ex-
cluding a practice game with Lin-
field's Jr. Varsity.
Half-Tune Score 24-10
High scores are not alway an
indication of possibilities of a
team, however, and the Pacific
five proved that point when they
'come back on the floor the second
half with only 10 points chalked
up to their credit to fight the fast
passing — fast breaking Pioneers
for 24 additional counters. The
half time score for the fracus was
34-10.
Booth High for PC
Standing out for the Lewis and
Clark cage crew was Lund, for-
ward, who marked up 14 of the
enemy's total points, mostly lay-
ins. The Kelsey brothers also
stood out for the Pioneers, each
sinking 10 points. Arnie Booth,
Norv Hadley and Clair Smith were
all high pointers for the local five
with Booth especially standing out
in the guard post. Booth canned
11 points, Hadly 9, and Smith 8.
The two teams are slated to
meet at the PC gym tomorrow
night for a return match.

City. The L and C'ers whipped the
Pacifies in a previous game in
Portland to the tune of 75-34.
In preparation for this game
tomorrow night and ones to fol-
low during the season, Coach Kel-
sey Hinshaw has run the basketball
aspirants of the local institution
through some practice skirmishes
on one of the cross-courts during
the past week. The floor in its en-
tirity is not yet able to be used
and as a result has hampered the
development of "wind" In the in-
dividuals of the squad.
Altogether some 20 men have
turned out consistently for the
hoop sport during the past two
weeks. Looking like the best pos-
sibilities are Dale Parrish, Arnie
Booth, Earl Craven, Norval Had-
ley, Conrad Cline, Clair Smith,
Bob Hurford, Eugene Smith, Ray
Balnea, Clyde Faber, Wayne An-
trim, Kenny Miller, Vern Bright-
up, Bert Frazier, Harold Johnson,
Jack Cadd, Don Wurtz, Floyd
Brown, Dean Peterson, Bob Arm-
strong and Wilbur Undershur.
Probable starting lineup for to-
morrow night's game will be the
same as the previous PC-L & C
game. Hinshaw will probably
start Hadley and Cline at for-
wards, Booth and Parrish at the
guard posts and Earl Craven or
Clair Smith as the center post.

The cultivation of poetry is

Why is it we are forced to
search for truth? Why can't we
be agreed? Why does she seem
obscure ?
'Twould make life simpler if we
could blend our differences to fit
one pattern.
You search for truth as well as
I. For every unsolved question we
seek an answer. And when we
think we've found it, we disagree.
What is truth after all?

PRENTICE THE PREACHER
(Imitating Master's "Petite the Poet")
Sighs to empty clouds, amen, amen, amen,
Amen, amen, amen, like whirlwinds on an ash-heap —
Soft little signs that the Spirit breathes
But the great man makes a cyclone of.
Testimonies; sermons and tracts
Precisely cut from the same crisp doctrine;
The prayers and the thoughts of the fathers are here.
But what are they but a page that yellows?
God all around me speaking each day;
Love, rebirth, faith and victory —
Temperance, truth, peace and sin —
All in the book and oh, what messages ! —
Creation, worship, sacrifice —
Messages my people never heard.
Sighs to empty clouds, amen, amen, amen
Amen, amen, amen, like whirlwinds on an ash-heap.
While Jesus died on the cross
And Paul and Kagawa roar through the world !

In My
Opinion
In a paper dealing with the
world economic situation which
was read before the International
Relations club, Dale Parrish, a his-
tory major and member of the
junior class, discussed briefly two
major aspects of the current econ-
omic problem: relief and world
trade.
A condensation of his material
is printed below to stimulate
thought and is not designed to
present the final solution nor to
advance all of the phases necessary
to balance the world's monetary
scales, at the present time strange-
ly tipped.
THE ECONOMIC SITUATION
The economic situation in the
world today is a hard one. to cope
with. First of all we must con-
sider the distribution of food and
clothing to the destitute countries.
This is a tremendous task and you
can't settle it by just saying,
"Let's ship it to them; we have
plenty." A country isn't going to
give something to another without
some return!
The next task is the actual dis-
tribution of these goods when
they arrive in the various coun-
tries. As it now stands, a few
people get most of the supplies
and the majority go without. Black
markets also play havoc with the
supplies and cause a lot to be
wasted. It is my opinion that
these supplies must be distributed
by various agencies assigned by
the United Nations Organization.
They will have to keep a careful
check on everything and see that
equal distribution takes, place.
Various large stores or some such
organ could be set up in principal
cities as distribution centers.
As to the reestablishment of
trade, the greatest trouble lies
with the currency exchange. Every
country has a different value and
the best solution seems to be to
return to the gold standard. Then
it will be up to the banks to see
that the value of gold remains the
same.
There must also be freer trade.
Not an absolute state of free trade,
as the big countries would soon
dominate the smaller ones, but the
tariffs must be lowered consider-
ably. The smaller nations can't
afford to pay such high tariffs as
we have in the United States and
although they are in need of our
export commodities, they are un-
able to trade with us.
These are only a few of the
most puzzling situations. The
whole problem is mighty intricate
and will be difficult to settle.

THE MOST UNFORGETABLE ..
CHARACTER I HAVE MET
By Aldean Pitts
It was on a Saturday afternoon
as we were touring Klamath In-
dian Reservation that we drove up
to a little "shanty". We knocked
at the door and slowly an elderly
lady made her way to the door.
She opened the door a little and
asked who it was. Everett Tun-
ning replied, "This is Everett Tun-
ning from Sprague River, Aunt
Jennie. I have brought a group of
boys from Pacific college to sing
for you." It was a joy to meet
her. As we shook her hand she
would say in quiet yet spirited
tones, "Praise de Lord".
Aunt Jennie Clinton, nearing her
100th birthday and being blind the
past twenty years is a Modoc In-
dian converted out of savagery,
through the efforts of Quakers
back in Oklahoma. She was driven
from Oregon as a result of the
Modoc war.
After her conversion she became
a zealous preacher. Before coming
back to Oregon she preached at
one of the sessions of the Kansas
Yearly Meeting. It ia reported
that there wasn't a dry eye in the
group. Upon her return to Oregon,
she traveled over the reservation
by horse and buggy preaching the
gospel, with many converts.
As we sang and read scripture
to her she would keep praising the
Lord. She related many interest-
ing experiences too numerous to
mention.
Regardless of her very homely
features she was the most beauti-
ful women I have ever met because
of the radiance that shown from
her life. The humble hut seemed
to be a mansion because it was the
home of Aunt Jennie. To know her
was to love her. Her "Praise the
Lord" still rings in my ears and
challenges my heart. Aunt Jennie
is a living testimony to the trans-
forming power of God.
(To all who would like to see
a picture of Aunt Jennie contact
"Tex" Pitts.)
A CHRISTMAS MEDITATION
No matter how we praise Him —
Son of God sent down that
night —
We know that choirs of angels
In their robes of heavenly light
Are singing alleluyas
Far surpassing ealthly praise.
Ah — that we could join that
chorus
And the ageless anthems raise!
